7 - Future being revealed

BETTY'S POV~

First it showed an image as a reflection in a glass....

There was blood everywhere.... Dead bodies of the king and his loyal subordinates scattered on the floor, half of the palace destroyed.

The image was blurry and I couldn't see a thing but the more I pressed forward, I saw a man's face.

Constantine!

He had an evil smirk on his handsome face as he sat on the huge golden made throne, his right hand stretched forward and small delicate fingers touched his wide palm.

"Come here, little kitten"

Even though the girl had her fingers on his wide palm, she still had fear coursing through her whole being, she was scared of this man who could go to any length just to be the king of all kingdoms.

Seeing that the girl wasn't coming closer, Constantine smirked as he pulled the girl into his arms, right on his lap.

"No.... Stay away from me, don't touch me!" The girl gasped in pure horror but the man in front of her appeared unfazed by what she said, instead he brought his red lips closer to the girl's neck.

"See by yourself, everyone, including that bastard father of yours is dead, now no one could save you from me, no one because you're mine, you will be my queen!!"

"No!, Never, I will never be your queen!!"

Staring closer, I noticed that I couldn't see the girl's face no matter how I tried to, her appearance still seemed to be blurry.

Staring back at Constantine, my heart thumped violently in my chest, I've never seen anyone like this my whole life, his eyeballs appeared darker, like a pitch dark pit without a soul trapped in it.

His head had red angry horns and in his back were dark wings spread very wide, he had fangs which appeared sharper and longer . In his hand, he held a huge sword, it's blade had some words scribbled in a strange language.

My eyes closed tightly immediately I heard the girl's loud scream and pained sobs as Constantine sank his fangs into the girl's neck for a few seconds.

What did he just do!!?

.....

My eyes opened and I looked around with several sweats tickling down my whole body.

What was that!?

Was it some kind of a vision or that occured in the past!?

I knew from the beginning that Constantine was trouble and he'd try to claim the throne one day but I don't know who that girl was.

Was it Camille?

After all, she is the only one I could think of at the moment, she was the one Tanya had said that Constantine would make his queen.

Yes!

That might be it!!

Tanya suddenly appeared in front of me staring at me worriedly.

"Betty, are you alright?, You really don't know how worried I am" Tanya muttered panting as she examined my face.

"Am so sorry for that, I think I passed out" I muttered trying to stand up from my bed before putting on my flip flops.

"For how long was I out?" I added and waited for her to do a small calculation inside her head.

"A week and two days"

"A week and two days!!!?" I gasped taking a step back in shock.

"Yep"

"I think is time for you to have some food, I've been transferring nutrients into your body through injections, that's why you still look as healthy as you should be" Tanya said and I muttered a "thank you" to her.

I entered the bathroom and took a short bath before brushing my teeth, thankfully that was also taken care of by Tanya.

"Gosh, I need to shower again, I stink" I muttered aloud even though I was sure that I wasn't, in fact, I was very clean.

"No, you don't because the maids come here about three times a day to bath you" Tanya said and that seemed to grab my attention.

"You said what??" I asked in shock.

"Surprised?, You're the talk of the whole kingdom little girl, everyone now respects you, Including those that didn't" Tanya smirked.

I nodded not finding anything exciting.

"Whatever" I muttered as I change my undies and then a dress before proceeding to comb my hair.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door which made I and Tanya to exchange glances.

"Come in"

The door opened and a maid walked in, she bowed "Good morning my princess, The king requests your presence in the royal dinning hall this morning for breakfast"

I nodded mutely and she bowed once again before walking out of the door.

"Geeezz, so tiring"

~~~~~~

I walked into the dinning hall to find everyone present, including Constantine. When our eyes met, I remembered the vision I had some days ago.

Oh my!!.

At that time, he looked like someone who was possessed and read to claim that girl on his lap.

Staring back at my sister, I felt pity for her , poor girl Camilla doesn't even know what would befall her.

"Good morning royal father" I said respectfully with a small bow.

"Good morning princess, come have a seat next to me" The king said excitedly as he patted the seat next to him.

That was good sitting next to the king but....

There was a problem.

That seat was the only chair in between Constantine and my father....
